LOVE PART FOUR

What causes people to be angry?

Many times when I would become angry after displaying my fit of anger and rage and many time my sudden out burst, when I have cooled down I will always try to understand what caused me to display anger and was my out burst warranted.

Many times I will find no reason to warrant my outburst of anger and even if there was one because emotions which was uncontrolled stepped in, and anger and rage were displayed unchecked because I was without understanding. And after the outburst came the feeling of shame.

And because of shame an excuse will come to cover the bad behaviour, because I did not want to admit I was wrong and angry, When conversion was granted to me understanding, wisdom, and knowledge also came and as such I am able to make informed decisions and my emotions are controlled, this is the sanctification process, on this pathway of life and serving God we must grow and be increased in Knowledge, Wisdom, Understanding, and Power.

1. WORD'S.
2. ACTION'S.
3. PERCEPTION.

These cause people to be angry.

WORD'S are thoughts voiced or written, making statements to hurt or belittle another person based on your ill feelings, and confused emotions will increase anger.

Before you speak, think:

• Will the words spoken benefit, enlighten, or allow you or the receiver to grow spiritually.
• Admit you have spoken angry hurtful words.
• Do not make excuse for words spoken.
• Accept responsibility for your words spoken and the actions that followed.
• Examine oneself and get a solution.

ACTION'S are the process of doing something to achieve an aim. You need to ask yourself:

• What was done for me to react?
• Was the action manifested justified?
• Think before you act, many times your actions only bring you shame.
• Get a workable solution before you manifest reprehensible behaviour.

Perception:

PERCEPTION this is thoughts and feelings, which are conjured up into some kind of image in one's mind that one thinks to be right. Perception in this case is not reality and when anger is activated based on perception that anger cannot be justified.

Many times persons get angry based on the perception in the mind, perceptions of words, and actions. Many times we misinterpret signals received from others and our immediate reaction is to get angry and withdrawn, but if we take time to examine why we are angry, then we would discover there is no reason to be angry.
